For parts identification: anodize or what?





2004

I simply want to tell two nearly identical A380 cast aluminum cast parts from each other prior to finish machining and subsequent component assembly by coloring one of them. There is no end use corrosion requirements. What are the least expensive 2 or 3 options?
